Maybe you don't understand what that means. Let me break it down a bit. To me (in my words) it's saving yourself completely; your heart, soul, mind, body, AND emotions. (So many people tend to forget about that last one.)
First off you will have to believe that God has one and ONLY one man out there for you. (IF it is His will for you to marry at all.) If {HE} is God's will for you, {HE} will be perfect for you. No, I didn't say {HE'd} be perfect. Just perfect for you in God's eyes. God knows the exact partner you need to help you grow spiritually and who will be your best battle partner. Together you will be committed to furthering God's kingdom and bringing glory and honor to Him. It's not something to take lightly.
Are you committed to waiting for that one man? It's not just that though, are you committed to waiting for God's best in your life?
Are you a Christian? So do you really have a choice in the matter? Good isn't good enough for God. Neither is better. God's best is really the only option when it comes right down to it.
Can you trust God enough to wait on His perfect will?
